The wine

  • Description

    100% Chardonnay from handpicked grapes; vinified and raised in oak casks.

  • Taste

    As the grapes mature a little late in this location, they are generally picked at the end of the harvesting period; when young, the wine is first dry and long in the mouth and then gains in elegance with age. The nos is complex with citrus fruit and mineral aromas.

  • Serving temperature

    12/14°C. It is recommended to decant recent vintages so as to enhance the aroma.

The vintage

  • The end of the winter was very cold ; nice weather early april was the best contitions for buds to come out ; end of may, the vines are in bloom. Hot and dry conditions in july and august helped the grapes mature quickly. We started harvest on the 31st of august on Beaune Clos des Mouches white. Fine citrus aromas, well balanced between richness and freshness, without being too pronounced nor overmatured.
